“We are like tenant farmers chopping down the fence around our house for fuel when we should be using Nature’s inexhaustible sources of energy--sun, wind and tide. I’d put my money on the sun and solar energy. What a source of power! I hope we don’t have to wait until oil and coal run out before we tackle that.” — Thomas A. Edison

Hey Tom,
ReplyDeleteIs there any way to redesign this site to make it easier to follow people's comments? If there was a box on one side automatically showing recent comments on articles, it would be pretty useful.

Another thing Tom,
ReplyDeleteIt might be worth putting up a brief article calling for an end to petty insults and mischaracterisations on both sides of the MMT/MMR divide.
Blogger has lots of newer styled templates... probably a matter of taking the time to do it for the busy fellas that run the place.
ReplyDeleteIt's Mike's blog and he set it up. I am not familiar with Blogger, so I would have to get up to speed, which I don't have time for right now.
ReplyDeleteMy own sense that Blogger has issues. It's owned by Google and Google has reconfigured it to make it quite proprietary and Google-centric. So it is probably getting to be time to consider migrating to a more robust format like WordPress or Drupal. But I am unlikely to find the time to learn enough of one of those to create a worthy site. However, those decisions are up to Mike as blog owner anyway.
